Z-Man vs. the NM's part 'un


So...I found some time off from the christmas cookie factory to attempt to get a brown belt for my starting char...

/slap

...what did i say? (interpretation: Ya i wanted to push myself over the edge by camping a bunch of NM's...hopefully ill have enough brain cells left to remember to breathe and use the toilet)

oh ya... the NM's

So i start off doing those rams outside of the dunes for the purple belt quest. (i don't know how the japanese came up with purple... nothing in japanese culture is purple to my knowledge ... besides the stupid belt)
Sounds easy enough, sub /rng for widescan, head to Konschtat Highlands and find those 2 rams that spawn big and ugly... i fool myself to belive that i'll get a chance at super-big-and-ugly (Steelfleech Baldrich) but ya i'm susceptible to dillusion...
Anyhow, i'm going along... killing the rams every 11-12 minutes... i'm having fun right? =/
I'm feeling good about my chances... even stop to chat w/a random noob. Then, out of the blue, a flash of silver and red! It must be a missile of some sort... or some sort of stealth fighter flying below the radar floor... or some kind of WoTG data floating around...
...or a taru pld....ya i saw through his clever disguise... hiding /anon among the saplings...
AAAACCKKK!!! and he's killing the rams!
I hate competition for mobs camping an NM... not that i camp NM's often. It's just that the idea of spending hours of time in one location with potentially nothing to show for it doesn't seem like the brightest proposition to me. In fact, i'd rather chew off my left arm or play 'tip the Jormungond.'
So i'm competing for every mob, using everything in my power to keep that taru off my overstuffed fluffy flea-bitten bits of hope that i might actually spawn and claim this NM.
Then i come out with a ingenious plan! Thank the Lord for braincells! I open my lazy cyber mouth and /talk...and what do you know? Through the miracle of technology (and auto-translate) i find out he's just a ...
...omg i feel karakulish... (cept w/out the fleas)
i've been a rebel w/out a cause... and worse...causing this poor guy to waste time farming. I offer to give him the skins that i've been just dumping... =/ but he's already filled his inventory...

/gah...

ranks up there w/the time i was lfp 4 hours.... anon.... >.< Anyway...got the NM's, got the belt, got the /slap.... ....now about those brown belt NM's....
